Ok, so last night (Sunday) I ordered 35 lbs of the premium live rock from gulf live rock, and got the call an hour or so ago that it is arriving tomorrow morning at ten. I have a 55 gallon tank already, but this is to go in to a new 125 gallon tank that’s still in the process of being set up (I didn’t think it would come this fast. I figured next week!) anyway, the tank is about 3/4 full and I think I have enough stuff to get it going at keep it going for the short term.
anyway, I’m very excited to get the rock and place it in the tank, however I was wondering if I need to do anything special like a fresh water dip or just drop it in. I’ll be under a little bit of a time crunch when I pick it up, as I’m gonna have to sneak away from work to pick it up and get it home, so I’m kinda thinking just dropping it in and see what happens, and hopefully nothing too bad will come in on it.
What are you guys thoughts on this?
